Haiku My Heart - Regrets

Click to enlarge

regrets fall like ashes
grace leans
into the coming storm

Another dual offering for Haiku My Heart Friday and AEDM today.

I tried a new technique ('Apply Image') for blending two photos in the above image. I love the result - thanks to Deana for sharing this easy Photoshop  tutorial. Can't wait to play with the technique some more.

I have been a bit remiss in posting, but I have been working diligently on both map and doll for TAG, even taking photos along the way. I will post more very soon...

Meanwhile, visit the places above – they will haiku your heart and art your soul. Promise.

Peace.

    I'm so impressed. The depth in the work is amazing. The background actually glistens.

    Deb, I love what you did here and the words are so appropriate, I'm thinking of having the word 'grace' as my theme word for next year!

    it is a beautiful blend perfectly made for your ku... regret is definitely a sad emotion but grace is so uplifting... and i love the black eyed susans long after the bloom has become weary... thank you, miss pie

    Hiya Deb,
    Blended phrases and blended images, turned into a wholesome whole.
    Two different 'wholes' here? I am confusing myself now. Language never fails to bewilder.
